I survived my mother in laws funeral today but it was very hard.


To start things off, my H's step-mother arrived hugging me and crying because she hates to see me & h go through this and how much she & my father in law love me and how worried they are about me & my son.

Wow Buckeye! What a day you had. Good for you for being able to hold your head up through all of that. Many people wouldn't even had been able to attend the funeral. I hope you had a good night's sleep and today is a new one. Hopefully a peaceful one for you. I agree holding your head up is exhausting for you (but also admirable). You must be proud of yourself! Keep us posted, and hugs from Canada.

Wow! What grace and style you handled this situation with, Buckeye!! Good for you! I'm sorry for your MIL's passing, and the rough circumstances during the funeral and luncheon, but I think you should be VERY proud of the proper and appropriate way you conducted yourself!!


Big hugs!
